eaed McM1nn, their leader, at Rs.
VIENNA, o., while he was being brought
here from Pittsburg by Captain Hoehn

The English Language.

The English language has been built
by slow processes, from rude-spoken yer.
naculars Of different though kindred
races, but enriched from time to time
by the introduction OF words borrowed
from the Greek and Latin tongues.
Thirty-one dictionaries of the English
language have been prepared and pub
lished in the United States, and one hum
dred and twenty.four have been prepared
and printed ia Great Britain.
In these authorities, even in the
modern ones, there are wide differences
of opinion in regard to spelling and pro-
nunciation, and even in regard to the di-
vision OF words into syllables. Nor is
there any tendency to uniformity.
In this country there is party for
Webster and a party for Worcester,
while in England neither of the American
dictionaries is an accepted authority. -

THE TARIFF QUESTION IN THE
HOUSE.
What a Member Of the Ways and Means
Committee Says.
NO MORRISON BILL rESpING-rHE REAL STATUS OF
THE NATTER.

member OF the House ways and means COM
mittee, in conversation with STAR reporter yes
terday, was commenting upon the misnomers used
In speaking OF the tariff question as 1t is before
the House. 1t is really surprising, he said every
body speaks OF "the vote on the Morrison BILL -" or
the defeat of ''the Morrison BILL As matter Of
fact there has been no vote on any tari bill in the
House this session; nor, in fact, this Congress.
The vote referred to was upon motion to go into
committee OF the whole House to consider revenue
bills. There were several revenue bills on the
calendar and the motion referred to one as much
as to another. 1t would have been for the House
In committee to decide which they would consider
whether the one reported by the ways and
means committee with their approval; the Ran
versely, or any other her bill N on the s' calen-
dar When members voted against going
into committee, they voted against any considers
revenues. As to the name "MorriSOn BILL" Or
morrison horizontal bill" there is no Morrison
bill on the House calendar; nor is there hori-
zOntal bill there. There Is not and has not been
during this session such bill on the calendar.
Mr.. Morrison introduced bill, but IL was never
iii by That eotee Was entirely
unlike the "MOrrisOn bill, being drawn up by
other members OF the comnittee and upon diff
ferent plan. 1t Is Numerically opposite to 1t.
Instead OF being horizontal, like the one the
enaeting clause was knocked out OF in the
ForIy-eisht Congress, It is perpendicular. The
bill deals with textiles The only thing Mr.. Nor
riSon had to do with this bill was that he con-
sented to the committees reporting it, and as
chairman Of the committee handed the report into
the House. Mr.. MOrrtsOn's bill was buried in COM
mttee. The committee on ways and means are
going, as soon as Congress meets after the recess
to begin anew their Efforts to get consideration Of
the revenue question. They have no IDEA what
may come out Of the House finally In the way OF
BILL but they are not going to let it be their fault
If something is not drawn out. II the result of
all the changes, additions and amendments is a
bill in the direction OF reduced tariff and on the
whole, has more good than bad in it, according to
the views OF the tariff refOrmerS, they will vote
for its passage. II it comes out otherwise, they
will vote AGAINST IT.

Chicago Dens of Iniquity.

THE GRAND JURY REPROyE THE POLICE FOR PERMIT
TING THEM TO EXIST.
A strip OF street in Chicago called the Levee has
gained reputation for being otherwise than 1t
ought TO be. The grand jury Of Cook county yes
terday came down On the city authorities ON ac-
count or this levee. The report to Judge Collins
says: "We find that many OF the cases coming be-
fore us are the direct result of the existence OF
saloons known by the police asconstant resorts for
thieves and bad women. From the evidence pre-
sented In these examinations we found the police
SO familiar with the character OF these that
The mention OF The place where a crime Was CON-
United enabled them almost immediately To locate
the criminal. The foregoing facts lead us to be-
ileye that gross injustice is being done to public
morals In increasing crime by these means and
rendering the lives and property or our citizens III
secure, and we believe the police department and
the mayor sufficiently informed In reference to the
character OF the resorts Of thieves and bad women
To be responsible for their existence"
Judge Collins said that he was glad that the
foreman OF the grand jury had referred TO the
saloons and the responsibility Of the authorities
Tor their existence, as he had been ON the criminal
Dench SIN months and could safely say that one
third OF the cases tried before him originated from
eight different and well known saloons Judge
Collins also declared that the police were aware Of
this circumstance, and added that none OF these
places should b6 allowed a license. These low
dives and theaters run day and night seven days O
week.

never came close to him. He believed that there
was an advance but he did not know whether IL
was ordered, or II SO when.

The Capitol Deserted.

THE MOURNING EABLEMS REMOVED THIS MORNING.
The Capitol was as quiet as q tomb to-day. Early
In the forenoon the mourning emblems were re-
moved from the rotunda, and then the DOORS
except the lower ones at each end, were
closed. About noon the building was
almost entirely deserted. Throughout the entire
length OF the main corridor not sign Of life was
visible; not even the sound OF foot
fall disturbed the quiet, and in the vast
rotunda there was an impressive stiffness.
Col. Canaday, sergeant-at-arms OF the Senate,
was at his desk. His time for several days past
had been so entirely absorbed in attending TO the
funeral arrangements OF Senator Logan that he
was compelled to catch up to-day. Everything in
connection with the funeral had to be done In a
rush.
